AI chat widget that answers visitors and captures leads 24/7
Chatporch is an AI chat widget for websites. Paste one script tag and it goes live in minutes, no developer needed. You write who you are and what you offer in plain English; the bot answers from that (and stays quiet on what it doesn't know), matches your site's look, and hands off to your phone/email/booking link when it's stuck. Every conversation is saved so you can see exactly what visitors are asking. Free plan available, no credit card required.

6Hey Fazier! Built Chatporch after watching too many small business sites lose visitors to a contact form nobody checks until Monday. It's just a script tag plus a plain-English description of your business. No flows to build, no training data to prep. Happy to answer anything about how it works.

Customer support automation finally solved. Small businesses drown in visitor questions spread across email, phone, contact forms, and chat - and most of those inquiries come during non-business hours when nobody is available to respond. The result is lost leads and frustrated prospects. Chatporch removes that entire burden by answering common questions automatically in real-time while capturing contact details for follow-up. The beauty is it requires zero technical setup and no developer knowledge - you just write your business description in plain English and the AI understands your specific context. No rigid FAQ templates, no complex intent training. For local service businesses, SaaS companies, and e-commerce sites, this removes the biggest operational bottleneck: being able to respond to every lead even when you're sleeping or busy with other customers. The conversation history dashboard means nothing gets lost. Real win for scaling customer support without hiring a team.
The 'stays quiet on what it doesn't know' part is the whole ballgame for putting a bot on a real business site — one confidently-wrong answer about pricing or returns and the merchant switches it off. How does it handle the gray zone, where a question is adjacent to what you've told it but not quite covered — hedge, hand off, or attempt? That threshold is where most of these widgets live or die.

The answer-at-2am pitch makes sense, but the thing I would evaluate first is what happens after capture — does the lead land in my inbox or CRM with a clean summary of what the visitor actually asked, or live only in a dashboard I have to remember to check? The tools that forward context win.
I really love the focus on keeping it simple with a plain English setup. The best part is definitely that the bot is designed to stay quiet when it does not know the answer. Hallucinating bots are a real pain right now. Looks like a very solid tool!
